  There are only a few visible graves in this cemetery.  It sits below a main street of Winnemucca,
  and is easy to miss.  Across the street from this cemetery is the Pioneer Memorial Park, with
  monuments to some of Winnemucca's pioneers.    Some of the interred information is from
  those gravestones that are across the street by the Pioneer Memorial Park.  These gravestones are
  marked by an " ** " below.
